The Golden Ring of Russia - Trinity Monastery of St. Sergius in Sergiyev Posad
This video is a compilation of clips from a day trip we took to Sergiyev Posad, the closest town to Moscow of the Golden Ring in Russia - this monastery is about a 1 hour train ride from Moscow Yaroslavskiy station, about 75km (45 miles) to the northeast.
Russia's Golden Ring is a ring of towns/cities outside of Moscow which all played a very important role in the formation of the Russian Orthodox Church - all of these towns have great monasteries, cathedrals and other historical sites dating from as far back as the 12th century!
Sergiyev Posad, known as Zagorsk in the Soviet period, is nowadays an industrial town of around 100,000 inhabitants - tourists flock here, however, for the Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius, a monastery complex which was started in 1337 by Sergius of Radonezh.
Major sites at the monastery include the Cathedral of the Assumption, which was commissioned by Ivan the Terrible in 1559, with a major burial site right outside of the cathedral housing the tombs of the Godunov family, including Boris who was the leader of Russia at the end of the 16th century. His reign saw Russia descend into the Time of Troubles, the precursor to the 300 year Romanov dynasty and perhaps the single biggest reason for it occurring.
The monastery is small but a nice half-day trip from Moscow - check it out if you can. Hope you enjoy the video!

STORYLINE:
Russian Orthodox worshippers were preparing on Friday to celebrate one of the most important holidays in their calendar- Christmas day - which falls on 7th January.
One of the largest Masses in the city this Christmas Eve will be celebrated at the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour.
A statue of local hero, founding father of Moscow Prince Yuri Dolgoruky, had been suitably attired as Father Christmas
The city developed from a small wooden fortress on the bank of the Moskva River to the capital of the first Russian centralised state.
At the end of the 18th century the capital was relocated to St. Petersburg, but in 1918 Moscow once again became the nation's heart.
The onion domes of St Basil's are famous throughout the world, but Moscow has many other churches which were all expected to be full over Christmas.
Traditionally Christmas is the season of goodwill, the same in the east as in the west.
One Muscovite, Vera Pavlovna, expressed the mood of the season, saying I want everything in Russia to be good, and so that all are safe and sound. And so that all people have what they wish.

Russian Orthodox Monastery of Sergiev Posad
Some sights at the Monastery and the sounds of the bells as they toll each day. It shows normal, everyday people enjoying a religious experience in a place where it was prohibited for 70 years under Communist rule.
The film closes with the Tsarist National Anthem, sung by a Russian choir. The music is familiar to some in American churches as God the Omnipotent. The intensity of the little girl as she lights the candle is irresistable and touches the heart.

I Was an Nkvd Agent: A Top Soviet Spy Tells His Story Paperback – September 12, 2007
by Anatoli Granovsky
Anatoli Granovsky (born 1922)[1] is a former NKVD agent who defected to the West in 1946 and authored an autobiographical book about his career in Soviet intelligence. After defecting to Sweden in autumn 1946, Granovsky wrote the book I Was an NKVD Agent.
Defection
Granovsky, after working in eastern Europe, was reassigned a new cover as a member of the Merchant Navy in summer 1946. In Odessa Granovsky had been approached by the MGB, successor to the NKVD, and asked to be their spy aboard the ship Petrodvorets, with which he would rendezvous in Stockholm after traveling aboard another ship. On July 10, 1946, Granovsky arrived in Stockholm. On July 21 he slipped away from his colleagues in a crowd and went to see the assistant U.S. Military Attache. Because he could not speak English and the American could not speak Russian, they went the supervisory Military Attache, a Colonel who spoke German (in which Granovsky was experienced).
The Americans refused to grant Granovsky asylum and he was arrested by Swedish authorities. On November 8, 1946, shortly before he was to be repatriated to Soviet authorities, which was a veritable death sentence, Granovsky was granted asylum by King Gustaf V of Sweden.
Gustaf V (Oscar Gustaf Adolf 16 June 1858 – 29 October 1950) was King of Sweden from 1907 until his death in 1950. He was the eldest son of King Oscar II of Sweden and Sophia of Nassau, a half-sister of Adolphe, Grand Duke of Luxembourg.
Following his death at age 92, he was implicated as a homosexual in the Haijby affair. His supposed lover – career criminal and accused pedophile Kurt Haijby – was imprisoned in 1952 for blackmail of the court in the 1930s. (Homosexuality was a criminal offense in Sweden until 1944, though Gustaf's position would have granted automatic immunity.)
The House of Bernadotte, the current royal house of Sweden, has reigned since 1818. Between 1818 and 1905, it was also the royal house of Norway.

RUSSIA: ORTHODOX EASTER CELEBRATIONS
Russian/Nat
Russia's faithful will be celebrating the festival of Orthodox Easter this Sunday.
Freed from decades of state repression, the Russian orthodox church will greet the holiday with a wealth of holy pageantry.
But the religious are attracting a different type of political attention today.
Russia's presidential candidates have realised that the Orthodox Church is a potential source of large numbers of votes.
And from President Yeltsin to Communist Party boss Gennady Zyuganov, the race is on for the political soul of Russia's churchgoers.
With decades of state-sponsored atheist ideology laid to rest, Russia remains in the grips of an astonishing religious revolution.
The scaffold around the Church of the Holy Mother of God in a Moscow suburb bears witness to the hours of work and billions of rubles devoted to reconstructing the Orthodox tradition.
Once shunned as followers of the cult, the Orthodox faithful now enjoy unprecedented freedom of worship.
More than that, donating money to the church has become the vogue among Russia's rich new entrepreneurs while politicians battle it out for the hearts and minds of the Moscow Patriarchy.
It was not always so. The brutal communist campaign against religion destroyed over 50,000 churches across the country and outspoken priests were consigned to prison camps.
The destruction on Stalin's orders of Moscow's Christ the Saviour
Cathedral, Russia's largest, became a symbol of the regime of terror.
Now all but reconstructed, Russia's politicians are carving a role for it as the nation's spiritual centre.
And a role for themselves as the friends of Russia's increasingly powerful Patriarchy.
From President Yeltsin to extreme nationalist Vladimir Zhirinovsky, the church photo opportunity has become a key event in political propaganda.
Others too, with an eye on June's presidential elections, are latching on to the idea.
The monastery complex at Sergiev Posad outside Moscow was the seat of the Russian Orthodox Church under the communists.
Recently, it hosted the communists' current leader Gennady Zyuganov.
Zyuganov said he was on a fact-finding mission to learn more about Russia's spiritual heritage.
His opponents claim he used three hours of talks with church officials to lobby for support in the June elections.
In any event, while not claiming to be a believer himself, Zyuganov denies any plans to turn the clock back.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
Our relations with the church normalised long ago. Our political programme allows for freedom of conscience and maximum respect for all that it is connected with Russian culture
SUPER CAPTION: Gennady Zyuganov, Communist Party leader.
Gleb Yakunin, an orthodox priest defrocked for his outspoken politics and criticism of the Russian church, says the Patriarchy must make a stand.
Himself jailed for his beliefs in the 1970's, Yakunin believes that flirting with the communists is not worth the risk.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
As far as the reaction of simple believers is concerned, they are afraid. The church was dreadfully repressed for 70 years. Young believers do not support the Communists anyway, but old folk remember the years of repression and are deeply worried.
SUPER CAPTION: Gleb Yakunin, Member of Russian Parliament
Priests at the newly-restored Patriarchy, converted into a juvenile prison under the communists, insist there is no cause for alarm.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
It is clear that the Communist Party and other left-wing political groups have renounced atheism in words. The church has no grounds not to believe them - the church must always believe. The church cannot treat politicians or anyone else with prejudice
